WIW: high-waisted jeans, lace-trim sweater, and a hat

A hat is always a good idea! And I feel like we never give hats the attention they deserve. I always want to wear one, but somehow never do it enough. I’ve had this one for a long time, but am really looking to expand my collection. Anyone have any good hats they recommend? I’m really liking this one with a wider brim, and this one is just adorable.

I kept the rest of the outfit casual, with my favorite ripped-at-the-knee Free People high-waisted jeans(a style that I didn’t think would look that good on me, but I’m actually in love with them and wear them multiple times a week) (also these have cool studs that I now wish mine had), and a knit sweater with super cute lace trim detail. This is a great throw on piece with jeans for a weekend vibe, or layered over a black pencil skirt and heels for a more work appropriate look.

I have a lot of fun photo shoots in the works, and I am working on streamlining my wardrobe. Every new piece I buy, I throw away or donate something old or something that’s no longer working for me. I’m currently looking at this stunning silk blouse with gold button details, which would be just perfect for the office, and these black leather slides (which I would totally rock in Miami this May!). What do you guys think?
